The magic behind this innovation comes from TG0's advanced materials. TG0 has developed a flexible sensing material based on the principle of electrostatic induction, replacing the existing hard plastic shells and various sensors and electronic components.

Remarkably, this innovative material was created by a Taiwanese individual.
